the combination of hard and soft power is not easy.if you take something like counterinsurgency strategy, which i know people here have worked a lot on, that is a good example in which you combine hard and soft power. polling is interesting because instead of saying i will maximize my heart powered by how many i can kill, you say no i want to maximize how many civilian minds i can win and that is not measured by how many feet in enemy soldiers i kill. smart power also requires figuring out how to organize a government so that you can use both the resources of the state department and the defense department and combined them in effective ways. in our political coal church, we have this bizarre thing that we can't think clearly about this. we have a government of one giant in a lot of pygmies so there was an account, any account that was in the pentagon which secretary gates said should be transferred to the state department. and when it was transferred from pentagon to state, congress cut it in half. that is ridiculous. until we learn h

we go through hard times that no matter how hard we're tested we maintain face and we look to each other. we make sure were supporting and helping each other. i'm sure that spirit will continue until this city is all the way back. >>catherine: the president did take his time today, meeting with some of the families and talking to tornado victims. some of them today were back in neighborhoods for the first time since the tornado hit. here's some of what was said. >> this is devastating. i don't know how to do this. >> it is of real. and looks like a third world country it looks like it's been strategically hit by war. >> everything is gone and we have nothing. >>catherine: a lot of people saying 35 emergency response teams have been deployed alabama alone, nearly 1 million people are without power, they're saying it could be weeks may be months before power or is restored. with each day that passes were seeing pictures of the incredible destruction. grand joins us live in the studio with a look at some of the most compelling pictures. >>grant: were in the business of video, but sometimes

so it's hard, it's hard to get public to think in those terms. it's much easier than back in the cold war, iron curtain, it clear line, good guys on this site, bad guys on this site. the world in which you have the rise of the rest and the diffusion of power from state and nonstate actors will become much more complex world which will require much more subtle strategies. and that's hard in our political culture for politicians to explain that. it's much easier to do the simple white hat, black cat. black hat. >> you said about the u.s. will probably be the dominant military power for decades to come. the only one to project power globally. but what about simple white hat, black cat. black hat. asymmetry? we were humbled by asymmetry in the form of roadside suicide bombs in iraq and let me in afghanistan. might for instance, a power like the chinese use a more high-tech subtle version of asymmetry to come as you just said, tried to lock us out of the first island chain? might we be in danger of having the world's greatest navy and air force, but m

tried hard not to do. that meant a lot to me. here is a guy that had decades of experience in the transportation industry, the chief operating officer of the sacramento transit system. he did not owe me an explanation of all. he did not owe me an explanation that all. yet he felt compelled to reach out to me on that. that meant a lot. i think that he understood how much she was a part of that community of people that care very much about muni. i remember when he was giving management here about speed -- a hard time about speed in the twin peaks tunnel. the thing that occurred to me, when he said that, i was not thinking about the issue. i was thinking about the fact that he understood that any project without resources, deadline, or persons responsible, is not a real thing. that is what experience gets you. it is not simply a series of blood points. it is the knowledge to know when something is real and something is not. that is why it will be such a challenge to fill his shoes. it will take many people. n

we love hard working people. we built this country working hard, not for those making a billion dollars a year. i work hard and i manage my budget. this is the richest, smallest county in the world and we make billions and billions of dollars. if we cannot manage this, we should get rid of the bad management. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker please. >> good afternoon, supervisors. i'm the chapter vice president for -- and i am speaking in support of these fees. i know a few folks have commented that we might be misled. i am not misled. i know what happens in our department when we don't get revenue. last year, i saw many of my co- workers no longer go with jobs because they did not have revenues. we are trying to get revenue, not on the backs of san francisco. a month ago, i took my loved ones to the arboretum. i had to pay to come into the city. i had to pay today when my car sitting in a lot. i am fully aware of why we need revenue and i want you to think of one thing, we have to have sustainable revenue s

read it with the understanding that there is probably a lot of information there that will be very hard and goals and programs that will be very hard to implement at the department of public works, which had historically been a very male- dominated agency. but we made a commitment to the mayor, we made a commitment to the commission that we would study that report and to implement every single one of those as that applied at every level of the department. i was willing to do that because around in may were a lot of other powerful women, who said it would not be that hard. all you had to do is pay attention to it, and all you had to do was not take no for an answer and all you had to do was look forward, not backward. and with those varied little pieces of advice, which took on that task and we found at the

the key is studying hard to help his family, and there are a lot of kids working hard at school, and we really need this. we have our rights and we know our rights, and i hope you guys help this process. we are used, and we need this. thank you so much. -- we are youth, and we need this. >> [unintelligible] [cheering] supervisor wiener: thank you. thank you. i just heard someone shout above "secure our community is," and i know a lot of us in city government are not big fans of a secure communities. we are with you on not. speak directly into the microphone, but not too close, because then it is hard for us to hear. thank you. >> good evening. thank you for holding this meeting in for your service. my question is this -- the dinosaur. i went to mission high school. i may be passe. i am also a maritime safety officer, retired, and longshoremen, retired. these are from a passe decade, maybe. recently i saw a short video on the need streetcar corridor not closing, including a video of a city official on sides taking no corrective action in what is obviously a very dangerous incident. la

it's a hard cover book that came out in march of 2006. anybody have a hard cover. wave it up here.ht not want it after i say this. i got to pick the title. three cups of tea but viking told me they would pick the subtitle and they picked one man mission to fight terrorism one school at a time. i objected because obviously there's- ways to fight tear riz m with education but i said i do this to promote peace and i started 8 years before 911 and this is about promoting peace through education. i've worked afghanistan and pakistan many years and i said we need to have a tribal council. i went to manhattan in the fall of 2005 and the big boss of the whole group, nancy shepherd and carlin coburn in publicity. we met in a little room and i stated my case and they said, this is your first book so you need to listen to a few things here. first of all only 12 percent of nonfiction books make a profit and 2/3 are pre chosen by the publisher. we'd like to put our marketing arm behind us but your having to fight tear riz m to this. since i grew up in africa and worked pakistan for many years y

it is hard to pick out the favorites. we have over 200 films and the festival. we have some other wonderful american independent films like the centerpiece premier that stars john c. reilly. including the closing nine film that really shows the crossroads of internationalism that the festival. >> it is not just about the two weeks of the festival. you guys also run really fascinating programs for the bay area. >> really don't stopped screening films. we have a series of festivals in the fall for the fall season. and we often do week-long runs at theaters around the bay area so that people who want to see the kind of films that we show at the festival can see them all year long. and we have a wonderful filmmaker services department. we can provide fiscal sponsorship and a lot of great advice. finally, we have a really robust education department. people that want to learn about filmmaking can take some of our fantastic glasses. >> one of the things that impresses me about the film festival is sort of the impact that it has. i know you guys are the longest running

i had no idea how hard it was going to be. >> hinojosa: so what was so hard about it? >> once we were set up, it was hard to report, because access was really limited. >> hinojosa: well, a lot of people find that one of the things why you are such a rock star in international journalism, if you will, is the fact that you, anita snow, for ten years were essentially able to keep your chops as a solid fact-based journalist, but you were also able to be essentially critical of the cuban government and staymplod, keep your... you know, your bosses satisfied. it's... a lot of people just say, "how were you able to please, you know, the cubans so they didn't kick you out, and at the same time be a really strong reporter?" >> well, i just... you had to walk a pretty straight line. and it's the one thing the ap does the best. i mean, it kind of sort of balanced balanced reporting and neutral language. when the cubans would get upset with our reportage, which happened occasionally, it was usually because of the tone, or because... or if there was an error of fact. i mean, if the

to see, hard to find the path. we both decide, we may not reach there or we may... something going to be happening for us, too. >> they were very upset that they had not been able to get up to rob. they tried their hardest, but these guys were very exhausted. >> i was so sad. i came all the way up there to help rob, but i didn't met him. i have to return, close to by him. >> they were about a hundred vertical meters below him, and they had to turn around. and they left some tea in the hope that rob might possibly get to it, but... when i heard that news, i was in tears, and guy had to speak and tell rob. >> that was a very hard call to make, to have to tell your friend and long-time climbing partner that the rescue that would save his life was no longer coming. >> nobody can come that day; it's already too late. he has been out already one night he spent outside there. and then, yeah, i already thought when we left, "he's going to die." >> i was now the person responsible for this... the survival of the team. and i

we work hard for that. we work hard because we were told that if either of those were adopted, the fees would be rescinded. if you do not do this, you have made yourself a bunch of liars. i think that the people that have come here and spoken for the fees are also being cheated if you do this because what they don't realize is that all we're asking for is 1% per year of the new revenues generated by proposition 9. 1%. certainly, the recreation and parks department enjoys at least 1%. if you are not willing to allocate 1% of that revenue, you are not allocating one penny to the recreation and park department. that is not fair. the recreation and park department has been cut year after year after year, more than any other in the city. this is something that is important to the people. this is a place where many of us raised our children. my child lives with his throat friend in berkeley. we used to go to the arboretum to remember his mother. now, he will not go there anymore because we have to pay $14 to walk

john crew is always a hard act to follow. i am a staff attorney and i wanted to follow up on a few of john's points. in 1996 it was the first time the f.b.i. approached san francisco to join what was then not called the joint terrorism task force but was similar to it. when the f.b.i. asked san francisco this they say you have to follow our rules. mayor willie brown said in 1997 absolutely not. we are not giving you our resources so that you can follow your rules. if you use our resources you will follow our rules, particularly with regard to intelligence gathering. then in 2002 san francisco ended up joining the joint terrorism task force as did many towns across the tunt. there is a specific language for making sure that police officers followed 8.10, followed local rules and guidelines. our reading of the m.o.u. that came out on monday as my colleague pointed out is that f.b.i. practices and f.b.i. guidelines are in effect for san francisco officers who follow the joint terrorism task force and our concern is not violation

that's a hard act to follow. let me tell you. we have to go smart. every year we honor one of our own who is distinguished himself or herself as a hero for our youth. a warrior for our youth. in san francisco, that's a high calling. so many of you do this workday in and day out. it's difficult to choose one individual. but we have. and the person that we are honoring today is john osaki. now you know, when you meet john, you might think he is privileged. the japanese youth counsel was a grass roots organization in japan town created by jeff mory. john was actually a participant in the program. he came up and i got his first summer job? gcyc. he has worked in early childhood development. substance abuse prevention. they have expanded the range to include college access. substance abuse. youth employment and youth leadership. just to give you a sense of how many people are served there are over 8 thousand children from all /*eugt ethnic backgrounds. they help over 3 thousand youth to be the first to go to college. they put over 2 thousand youth a year

sometimes it takes a lot of hard work to see them. we need to make sure they are hooked up to services they might need, so they can live independently at home. we have also multi generational households. we have many seniors living with grandchildren and great- grandchildren in their homes. that is a unique feature in district 11. many of us are struggling. we are also working to make sure our voices are heard. this town hall is a big part of making sure that our voices are heard, so thank you for being here. in the last two years -- not this year, but years before, i served as the chair of the budget committee. this year, we have supervisor carmen chu, who has been very difficult and on enviable job, but will be doing a fabulous as the chair of the budget committee. i know supervisor carmen chu will have some words to say. when you are going through, what you have to do bring the budget to balance with the mayor's office, i want to thank you for your services and effort.

but it's so hard to express them. so when they found the one at the new york historical society, and that was days and days of just going through these written records, and i was like, y. am i doing this? and the young man there, his name was fernando, and i went and told him and he said to me, he got really excited that this was the one excitement, he said i could give you this book. you know i can't. so that's never too. and your third question was about when i -- [inaudible] >> yes, okay. so at the schaumburg, the woman had written a book called the free negro in antebellum new york. it was a colombian dissertation from the 1970s, and she died before publishing it. her husband had gotten it published as a book, and then gave the manuscript collection to the schaumburg. and i -- the book is all than anybody says, go to the recent scholarship. she had really, really done her homework. i mean, she did everything. and i ended up just repeating what she did, just for verifying that everything she had a hand out. so she

as hard work to show you were working hard, the satisfaction of doing really well of becoming really skilled in your trade or in your profession, and timely, as i said, making money in order to buy property, become a property owner, be able to vote because there was $250 minimum to vote, and in order to give back to the community, so george downing had a store on broadway right, i think it's north of bleaker, yeah, right above police police bleaker, and he placed ads about pickled oysters and boned turkey and was appeals to both black and white customers. president -- patrick's engravings were on bond street and patronized by the families on bond street, the white elite with last names like ward, low, ect., so these men were doing very well. wealth was not the only important thing for the black elite as i said before. one was respected, another was respectability. you had to behave in respectable ways, and as well as character, so character is the formation, the moral formation; right? of the self- and outward manifestation, if you work hard, go to church, if you treat your family we

putting my tax together was not hard decided not know of that many but i got a real shock when they sent down to the copyright holders to reprint the work. i had wanted to include sylvia platt celebrated poem daddy. we probably although the pollack and wanted to include two others i was going for broke and i wrote to the executor and also the sister of her estranged husband he was rumored to be a ferocious% and all responded that to reprinted daddy would cost me $100. i was paying for the permission fees out of the pistons of the book and is a beginning assistant professor with two kids i had not very much money of my own and the other two poems i asked for were $50 each. that was the beginning of my literary career. i settled for the $50 poem. i struck a bargain in bought one that is quite long and is magnificent between two win it was cheaper than daddy for reasons that we can speculate about. that was my introduction to the business of the of literary anthology as the idealistic young scholar and never occurred to me that poem's could be graded by the ticket price as well as by their

thanks for the hard work of commissioner's hammer and chan. thanks to your hard work you can go to bed and say, you are having an impact on community. people say why are you on the commission? we want an impact on the community. we have done it. it is only going to get better. i have to tell you thank you from the bottom of my heart, thank you. this is something you have done from the bottom of your hearts, so sa you to the mental health community, thank you to the officers, and thank you commissioner chan. commissioner chan: thank you. you will be hearing back from us in two months. hopefully we're on schedule. president mazzucco: thank you. is there any public comment on this? >> commissioners, i'm going to direct this statement to miss e ms. chan because you went on about how the sfpd should be wet nurses to a lot of mentally ill people. i don't see that as possible. the sfpd has a job that is tough enough as it is. my vant vantage point as a taxicab driver is a lot greater than yours on the street. i see a lot of the mentally ill walking a

these shrimpers are smart, tough, hard-working people. they're good people. i asked bp to give me a group of 50 fishermen and a couple of welding machines and welders and give us a week, and we'll design a way to pick this oil up for you. they wouldn't do it. >> what has this done to venice, and what has this done to grand isle? >> it's destroyed our way of life, you know. you know, we always had the best seafood in the world, even though the imports were coming in cheaper, we always could say well, we got the best. now this has tainted our industry. some are scared to eat shrimp. you have two choices. shrimp from the gulf with bp oil in the heads or get pacific shrimp that glow in the dark. take your pick. >> that's the fix consumers are in? >> that's what you're looking at. >> you haven't stopped eating shrimp? >> i'd rather die if i can't eat shrimp. i quit eating for a week, and i decided i'd rather die than not be able to eat shrimp. >> our conversation with the local legend dean blanchard. here's what he's angry at. let me throw you some numbers. 1,000

working group has been working hard. we met four or five times for an hour and a half or two hours each and it is up to 30 members of the c.i.t. working group. we have four doctors we are privileged to have. the major mental health service providers in the city, it is an amazing group. they are working hard and broken up to develop training to post and develop the c.i.t. job announcement so that folks in the department can apply for the c.i.t. program and then they are also talking about data collection and how to analyze data so we can see how it impacts our community and department. then moving on from september to december will be the rest of the training. and our goal, just a working draft, this is ideal what will happen, our goal is to launch c.i.t. in all districts by the end of this year, in december. that would mean this c.i.t. working group would give eight trainings total. those eight trainings would result in a fourth of our patrol division being trained on c.i.t. with that i will hand it over to captain goldb

i guess determination just took over and i worked hard at it. i worked hard to overcome that fear.o out there to have fun and try not to look out in the water and be, like, constantly worried that is underneath. and more focusing on, like, the way that i am going to catch. tavis: i assume with all of the technology, you could wear a prosthetic arm. you choose not to, since you don't have one on. >> when it first happened, i had a prospekt arm and there is a scene in the movie that is kind of funny because it is a quirky seen where i end up not liking the prosthetic arm that much. in real life, i kinda liked it, but it did not mean by lifestyle. i am happy with the way that i looked and i don't feel the need to have an arm to be beautiful. i shut it off and figured out how to do things with one arm. tavis: when you say it doesn't fit your lifestyle, what you mean? >> i am always running around and in and out of the water. it is hard to find a prosthetic that will really be beneficial just to help me. tavis: the obvious question that came to mind to me, how an actress plays a role li

in san francisco we work hard at this relationship. yes, we've had bumps, we've had difficult discussions. there are sometimes things that we don't like to hear that are distracting, whether it's a strike vote or something else. but we manage to get things done and that's what i'm here -- i'm not making any new promises as mayor. i'm trying to keep the old promises. a lot of you have been here a long time. you want the city to be safe, you want it to be solvent, you want it to be successful. i'm trying to resurrect -- [inaudible] and we don't do that by making, i think, unauthorized stretch against any part of san francisco that we work very closely with. so i'm just going to be bold about it and tell you from my heart, i think we go in a different direction. i think we maintain that special relationship we've had with labor. they are partners and we will work this out and when it comes to pension reform, li be honest, let the numbers speak to us. not political positions. and the numbers are saying, we've got to do things better and th

well it has a double edged sword which makes it hard to draw a line between the people's will and the international responsibility to protect them from gadhafi so says jesse ventura former governor of minnesota and his interview is coming up in about twenty minutes time here's a quick look. will be yours difficult because it certainly puts everyone between a rock and a hard place and one here and you feel well that's with business it's their country if we want to overthrow their leader or change whatever they do in their country you know it's their business to do so is it necessarily our business you know but here's the rock and hard place of a double edged sword you also don't want to see genocide or a slaughter take place because let's face it has all the guns and weapons and by the way where do you think you get something from. where. we're the biggest arms dealer in the world. every time u.s. forces are san is a military action there is always immediate battle going on alongside it and be the former yugoslavia where again to stand huge amounts of taxpayers' dollars are spanner win

it is a hard question for me. i think it is better directed to the contractor, if he was around, or someone representing him. every job is different. i think we spoke in the previous hearings about the demolition, that some of the demolition prep would not have required a permit. i think we talked about the flooring. but that would not include wrecking the concrete slab. that was part of the permit, i would have said. >> on your slow estimate, you said a couple of weeks. what about your fastest estimate, 10 people working? is 3 days reasonable? >> i have seen people did jobs in that time. some of these jobs -- i am sure you are familiar with some of the stores downtown. they can turn work around in a weekend. they can close and reopen again on a monday morning. you'd be amazed what they can do. president goh: thank you. commissioner peterson: i would like to follow up on a question i asked mr. waggoner. after you received the complaint and did see evidence of work being done before you granted the permit, what wou
